	Has anyone seen the latest advertisement for Rykodisc?
	(_Spy_, September '89, page 67, among other magazines)
	There's a band from Texas called "Evan Johns & His H-Bombs"
	whose latest CD, _Bombs Away_, has a cover that directly rips
	off _Waxworks_!  At first glance, I thought there was a
	new, non-Geffen reissue series in the works, but the
	glimmer of hope faded oh-so-quickly...

Toby Howard informs me that "The Loving" has just been released in the
U.K. as XTC's latest single.  The backside of the record has "Cynical
Days".  Toby also says there's a previously unreleased track on the
12-inch single.

I thought I'd make one last try at getting tapes of the not-so-recent
XTC Live on Radio appearances.  So far I've heard nary a word about the
following appearances:

    WNEW (NY, 102.7)        Tuesday 5/16
    KLOL (Houston, 101)     Friday 5/26
    K??? (Houston, 104.1)   Friday 5/26

If you have a tape of any of these appearances or if you know someone
who does, please contact Chalkhills-Request, so we can attempt to
include it in our XTC Live on Radio compilation.  Chalkhills has
nearly completed a draft of the compilation and we're going to take a
copy to the XTC Music and Friends Convention in Manchester.  The
finished tape will probably be readied for distribution to Chalkhills
subscribers beginning in early November (because that's when I will be
returning from Europe).

Which reminds me: the Chalkhills Digest will be running on automatic
starting in about two weeks, until I return.  Responses from
Chalkhills-Request will be slow to nonexistent.  I will try to have
someone attend to additions and removals, but there are no guarantees.
